[RFC PATCH v1 3/4] libgit-sys: parallelize build with Cargo's jobserver

<905e4e4d043a0ae78bf329c074552c7feba900d2.1742339107.git.josh@steadmon.net>
In-Reply-To
<cover.1742339107.git.josh@steadmon.net>

Cargo provides GNU Make flags that can be used to connect to its jobserver for managing parallel builds. They are not automatically passed to any `make` invocations, so let's add that to our build.rs script.
